Breaking down inverts with AJ Nelson

[@Stallagmite]

Duuuude, I saw you do inverts in a video recently and thought they looked so sick. Had to click right away when I saw this. Yesterday my wrist touched the coping and I landed. Was amazing being so close at 44 on a 4 footer. The bail tips were huge. Thanks!

[@LambChopper678]

Love how AJ rides the Frankie Hill 🤘🏻 My fav of all the Powell reissues. Crazy concave and a great feeling board with loads of pop.

[@chris73brown]

Yes, lm thinkin about getting that deck

[@karljessen7661]

Very cool! Good job breaking it down.

[@megangifford6554]

“Whatever you have” lmao as if we all don’t have a pelvis 😂

[@alicenelson5258]

so very proud of you!! love you

[@episodebeats2817]

Saw AJ doing inverts a couple of days ago at Shredfest😳😳Mind was blown. I’m gonna brush up on my street plants & then see if I can work up to mini ramp.

[@japrar]

One of the guys who really, really understands tricks.

[@ClassicalKev]

funny thing a couple of years ago this guy made me do an invert and im still doing them xD

[@dougkalagian]

This was just what I was looking for, thank you!

[@marcapwier6473]

I can’t wait to try these 💯

[@toddh1449]

They are the best. Good advice..

[@超虎生活]

You are really to doing the A-1 grade type inverted hand to coping stands! Yes!!!

[@megangifford6554]

Thank you, teach

[@ricricci7511]

Landed my 1st one ever this year, still low still whatever but let my tell you this trick chill your spine like ...no words, i remember i had like 2 weeks of 24/7 euphoria. Anyway, I suggest wood ramps, there is the too much leaning back slam that didnt see here,( cuz AJ is daaaamn good)....when I was close to landing my 1st i used to fold a couple of shirts under my jeans on the side of my pelvis, those slam are tuff shit...yeeep, i am that old.

[@panictryouts]

get some hip pads. they stop most hippers and pretty much invisible when you wear them.

[@5.h.4.r.k.]

Thank you for this man!

[@AB-vc7rp]

Monster Crazy sick 💪💪💪

[@molotovbatradio]

It's a sick trick, never see anyone doing them, I'm trying but haven't got it yet, this helps 🔥

[@skinnyskinhead9492]

sickest and hardest trick imo, hands down the scariest trick to even attempt

[@the_laybacks]

More AJ trick tips plz n thx

[@fishtacos293]

I'm def gonna try it now thanks dawg

[@DavidPalin]

There is a whole lot, i feel, that isn't being said about inverts. What is happening as you approach the coping? What is my first move i need to think about as i go up the transition? When i try on smaller ramps below the coping i tend to do a arch/rainbow manoeuvre and not straight up and down. Is this wrong? I have so many questions about this trick !

[@LizardWizard_]

I'm trying this soon as I get off work 😂

[@raffifroundjian6620]

Grabbing the coping feels so scary. But thank you for the great explanation

[@talalcockar1389]

This is something I've been trying for a while but they're always pretty low on the ramp, maybe I just need to go for the coping.

[@corleynine]

This guy gave me a board!!!

[@andrewmooney1471]

What deck is that?

[@jay999tv]

So good🔥im gonna try it🫶

[@jimmanning4739]

[@gabrielramirez9487]

[@CommonYouthBrand]

His pro model 59mm 101a's from Speedlab Wheels!

[@erikroide]

THANKS BRO, I'M GOOFY TOO I'LL TRAIN THIS, I DONT KNOW WHY BUT MY TROUBLE IS PUT THE HAND AND STAY THE TRICK IN MY HAND IN COPING, I CAN'T DO THIS STEP, I THINK WHEN I CAN FREEZE IN THE AIR I WILL DO THE TRICK BECAUSE FOR RETURN IS MOST EASY PART FOR ME

[@reza_dc2]

Who makes that deck?

[@megangifford6554]

Powell Peralta

[@thrashtilldeath9406]

[@xx_PCCR_xx]

[@megangifford6554]

[@xx_PCCR_xx]

@@megangifford6554 Thanks for replying so quickly!

[@Damon-v6h]

This dude rips

[@blender1188]

Inverts. Probably the only trick they did better 30 years ago. Blender, Mountain, Grosso, Hedges, Conroy, Jessee, Park, Hawk, etc.

[@acidsabbathkills]

Winkowski and Sandoval though

[@Ma660t5andw1ch]

Jeff Phillips

[@joshwilliams7692]

I guess I'm a dinosaur because I never realized people stopped doing them. People did them all the time when I was a kid.

[@Emulator_Crossing]

seems like no one do this cool trick in verts competitions nowdays...why is that?

[@endthedrugwartoday]

AJ super cool. The kids love him!

[@FyMp916]

Do you have to push off the coping with your arm to get back in

[@CommonYouthBrand]

AJ has mentioned on sessions that as the ramp gets bigger you basically just fall back into it rather than pushing off.
